PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

Soundwave is located in Nashville, TN as a central addition to the Opryland Hotel. This project includes 111,000 SF of indoor attraction, dining and amenities as well as 106,000 SF of outdoor water park facilities. The indoor water park is composed of three distinct levels tied together by a major circulation path allowing unforgettable vistas. Each level has its own programmatic identity ranging from entertainment centers, restaurants, kid’s areas, cabana decks, and adult bars and pools, all intertwined with fun water park attractions. Project developed under Blur Workshop.

The interior space is bathed by natural sunlight showcasing five “signature walls” structures that frame interior views hosting waterfalls and vertical greenery. The design, spaces, amenities and finishes help to create an upscale water park like no other. Project has been recognized by TIMES MAGAZINE as one of the world’s greatest places of 2019.
